Sheep and Lambs: Inventory by Class, Oklahoma and United States, January 1, 2013-2014
VOLUME 5, ISSUE 1 JANUARY 2014
W elcome to
the January
2014 issue of the Annual
Sheep and Goat Review! First,
I want to thank all partici-pants
from the sheep and
goat industries for their con-tinued
support and coopera-tion
– especially the produc-ers
who provide data for the
annual Sheep and Goats sur-vey.
Without their commit-ment
and participation, this
report would not be possi-ble.
A random sample of
United States producers was
surveyed in early January.
Survey procedures ensured
that all sheep and goat pro-ducers,
regardless of size,
had a chance to be included
in the survey.
Though many of the statistics
in this publication can be
accessed through our web-site
on a monthly basis
(www.nass.usda.gov/
Publications), this Oklahoma
Field Office summary will be
issued each January follow-ing
the release of the USDA-NASS
annual Sheep and Goats
report.
Please feel free to contact
our office with any com-ments
or questions you may
have. I hope you find this
information useful!
